DO THE PROPHECIES FIT THE ROMAN CATHOLICCHURCH? DO THEY CONFIRM IT IS THE "GREAT WHORE"?

Yes-a worldwide religion-17:1,5,15

Yes-has many people-17:1,5,15

Yes-many from nations all over the world
follow this religion-17:15

Yes-people of many languages follow this
religion-17:15

Yes-is part of a great city-17:4,5,18

Yes-has inherited the rites of the old Babylonian
cult-17:5

Yes-is the mother of harlots-17:5

Yes-abominations of the earth-17:5; much
of her teaching is very contrary to God's Word

Yes-kings of the earth are allied with her-17:2

Yes-kings allied with her have committed
spiritual fornication against God-17:2

Yes-did corrupt the earth with her fornication-19:2

Yes-inhabitants of the earth have been made
drunk with her false teachings and ways-17:2

Yes-has been responsible for the blood of
the saints-19:2; the Roman Catholic Church has admitted this

There is not a church or religion in the
world that fits every single one of these biblical descriptions, except
the Roman Catholic Church.

As clearly seen, in Rev 17:4,5,18, this
worldwide religion is closely integrated with (or part of) a great city.
Next, we need to see if the description of the city fits Rome.

1946-5A-8

DO THE PROPHECIES OF THE WOMAN (WHICH IS CALLED BABYLON)
FIT ROME? OR DO THEY FIT OLD BABYLON ON THE EUPHRATES?

Note, approaching the end of the Tribulation, the Euphrates
will be dried up. It would be impossible for ships to stand afar off and watch
her burning.

Also to be considered, will anything remain
of either Iraq or Iran after what may be termed WW III? Ancient Babylon was
located in Iraq.

Yes, every prophecy fits Rome. Yes, every prophecy
fits the Roman Catholic Church. No other city in the world fits every single
prophecy. In addition, no other city has a worldwide religion that fits every
prophecy in these verses and is also integrated into a city that fits every
prophecy.

Several of the prophecies could not fit a rebuilt
Babylon in Iraq. In addition, it is written of old Babylon, IT SHALL NEVER BE
INHABITED, NEITHER SHALL IT BE DWELT IN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION...WILD
BEASTS OF THE DESERT SHALL LIE THERE; AND THEIR HOUSES SHALL BE FULL OF DOLEFUL
CREATURES; AND OWLS SHALL DWELL THERE, AND SATYRS SHALL DANCE THERE-Isa 13:20,21.
